Hi out there, trying to get one certain string out of a textfile and want to look if that string has another appearance in the same file and print it out. What I have so far is: grep -v ^# textfile | awk 'BEGIN {RS=""} /\/usr\/bin\/vi|more|less|find|awk|man/ { if ( $0 !~...

Hi all, its seems to be common, that after cloning an AIX-Box via mksysb all the dlc-Devices are missing. There should be a simple mkdev command to restore it, but I dont know how. Deinstall und reinstall the dlc-Filesets does the trick, but there must be an easier way Any Guesses? Thx mad...

Oh, thank for this valuable answer. I compiled in the meantime latest version 4.8 on my own, but a pre-compiled version on the expansion pack is better anyway. A star for you! thanks and close mad Advanced Interactive eXecutable

Hi there, I just received my new and complete AIX 6 DVD Version. Included is a AIX Toolbox 11/2007. This differs from previous versions, because it is "Sourcecode only" and lsof - Source is not included. Does anybody know, where to get a lsof binary compiled for AIX 6? Thx mad Advanced...

Hi Folks, just a simple question, but I can not find the official IBM statement about this matter. So have anyone a link or a PDF for me, where it is black on white: "How many CECs can be managed by a single HMC" ? BTW: We are talking about 7310-CR4 HMC with V6 and POWER5+ Machines ( 9113-550...

What is the status of the system LED-code. There must be a hung for any reason with a 3digit code, or the system started up and you simply have the wrong output device attached. mad Advanced Interactive eXecutable

I have/had the same problem on a similar configuration in a customers environment. Even with oracle, but this is not even started and external SCSI Disks from Hitachi. The maximum troughput from these disks is 40 MB/s, although the attached SCSI adapter is built for theoretical 320 MB/s. If I...

Thanks so far for your answers... Yes, i do have oracle .. mad Advanced Interactive eXecutable

Hi guys, I am just in the state of collecting ideas and you guys may help me. We are planning to mirror a database via a long distance, but just for a backup reason, so this mirror is a shadow database. So we have a bunch of solutions to do so, but I am not sure, what is the best. In the...

Hi khalidaaa! Yes, you guesses right, I automate that and want to test in a loop, if the even installed lpar is now ready to work. So I would be lucky for a client-server call which returns a 0 or a 1 ;-) mad Advanced Interactive eXecutable

Hi all, I am looking for an command to show me: LPAR is alive and running and started all daemons. 1) PING is not good enough, because I get a ping-answer through the NIM Installation from the NIM Server. 2) Must be a command with an return code, so ssh or telnet is no option, because they...

Hi, am I right when I assume this is the first machine in this vlan you want to install? Lets start with lsnim -l master. Is there an interface if2 for the vlan? Is the name resolution of the master and the client in the vlan working? If not, go through "smitty nim_mkmac_if", but put before...

I did this with a 9GB internal SCSI disk once ago and if I remember properly, it was around 1,5 hours. Hth mad Advanced Interactive eXecutable

Hi, a good starting point is the HACMP Cookbook, where in chapter 5 you find a detailed description of migrating a cluster. You can find the cookbook here: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg246769.html?Open Hth mad Advanced Interactive eXecutable

Hi, Ken. no good news for you. This 40200023 state is not really recoverable and normally the IBM TA has to replace the sysplanar, which is not desirable for you without HW-support contract. So I fear this machine will never come back without a newsysplanar. Even changing of fans 1-4 and...
